THE ATTACKER FOR WHATEVER REASON (DEFENDER HAS NO
RANGED WEAPON, ETC)THEN COUNT IT SIMPLY AS A SUCCESSFUL DEFENSIVE ROLL IF HIS ROLL IS HIGHER THAN THE
ATTACKERS.
●
IF THE DEFENDER ISNT AWARE OF THE INCOMING ATTACKS
THEN A SUCCESSFUL ATTACK ROLL DOES ITS DAMAGE BASED
ON COLOR RESULT.
=STAGGERED=

MAKE AN ENDURANCE CHECK OR BE STAGGERED FOR 1 TURN. STAGGERED
CHARACTERS MAKE ALL ROLLS ON RANK 1.
=CRITICAL HITS=
IF AN ATTACKER OR DEFENDER ROLLS A 12 DURING COMBAT AND THE
ATTACK IS SUCCESSFUL, THAT PLAYER ROLLS ANOTHER D12. IF THE RESULT
IS 9 - 12 HE HAS CRITICALLY INJURED HIS OPPONENT AND THE DAMAGE IS
DOUBLED FOR DAMAGE/STUN/BLEED AND THE OPPONENT IS STAGGERED
AND CAN ONLY ROLL ON RANK 1 FOR ALL ACTIONS FOR 3 TURNS.

ATTACK MULTIPLE TARGETS OR HIT THE SAME TARGET MORE THAN ONCE BY
ROLLING 1D12 FOR EACH ADDITIONAL STRIKE. ROLL ALL DICE AT THE SAME
TIME. THE HIGHEST DICE IS -1 RANK SHIFT, THE SECOND HIGHEST GETS -3

=RESULTS OF INJURY=
WHEN A CHARACTER HAS TAKEN THE MAXIMUM HE/SHE CAN TAKE IN ANY OF THESE AREAS,
THIS IS THE EFFECT;
● DAMAGED: CHARACTER IS BATTERED AND BRUISED AND IN TERRIBLE PAIN AND READY
TO COLLAPSE. ACTIONS ARE AT -6 RANKS UNTIL HE HAS HEALED. DAMAGE HEALS AT 1
POINT PER DAY UNTIL HEALED. HEALING CAN BE ACCELERATED BY MEDICINE OR OTHER
MEANS.

● STUNNED: CHARACTER IS DAZED AND CONFUSED. ALL ACTIONS ARE ROLLED ON RANK
1. CHARACTER SHAKES OFF STUN ONLY WHEN ALL STUN IS REMOVED.
5
● BLEEDING: CHARACTER HAS GREAT LOSS OF BLOOD AND IS GOING INTO SHOCK.
CHARACTER IS OUT OF COMMISSION UNTIL THE BLEEDING IS STOPPED BY WHATEVER
MEANS. ONCE A CHARACTER TAKES MAXIMUM BLEED HE STARTS LOSING DAMAGE AT 1
PER MINUTE UNTIL THE BLEEDING IS STOPPED. WHEN BLEEDING IS STOPPED REMOVE
ALL POINTS FROM ‘BLEEDING’ ON THE CHARACTER RECORD. ANY DAMAGE TAKEN, HOWEVER, MUST HEAL AS PER THE RULES FOR HEALING OR BY SOME OTHER MEANS.
=VARIOUS GAME ACTIONS AND CONTESTS=
FALLING: 8 DAMAGE / 8 STUN PER 10 FEET FALLEN IF LANDING ON VERY SOLID
GROUND TO A MAXIMUM OF 80 DAMAGE INFLICTED. WITH A SUCCESSFUL AGILITY
ROLL, SUBTRACT YOUR AGILITY SCORE FROM THE TOTAL DAMAGE INFLICTED FROM
YOUR FALL. SKILLED ACROBATS CAN SUBTRACT DOUBLE THEIR AGILITY ON A SUCCESSFUL ROLL.

EACH OF THESE IS EQUAL TO ENDURANCE X4 FOR PLAYER CHARACTERS. WHEN A CHARACTER
HAS TAKEN DAMAGE, STUN OR BLEEDING EQUAL TO HIS ENDURANCE X4 HE SUFFERS THE
FOREMENTIONED EFFECTS.
